Em Marshall
‘Em Marshall is a singer songwriter who lives on the fringes of Dartmoor in Devon. Alongside arrangements of traditional material, her songs are snapshot chapters of her story so far; from the life spent growing up in an ex-mining town in the Midlands, the twists and turns of the heart, to the tangled roads that led far and out into the wider world.
She has also played extensively throughout the UK with Devon folk duo Crow Puppets, and Tim Jones and the Dark Lanterns. Recently, the title track to the album has been sung live in session on BBC radio’s Devon and Cornwall, promoting a show supporting west country folk legend Geoff Lakeman.
Her vocal style carries a rare richness of sentiment, and with it conveys a sense of tenderness, longing and reflection.’
